How do you always entice me with such bribes? I laugh at your temptations Folken. Never have I ever conceded with such bullshit. I believe that you will never give up on me, and I am your only hope.

"Never will I cave and fully give in to your desires."

This is how I feel about the very thought of allowing you to achieve your dreams. Please Folken, don't make me laugh. Everything you have said is a lie and even now, as I think away, I will never see my beloved again.

"My love, once more I yearn, no rely on you to bring me from this disaster."

Please leave me alone tonight sounds of the dark. I have found true despair and now know why those victims of mine have called out to their loved ones as I killed them so slowly. Their blood trickling down my sword, and into the dirt under my feet. Every drop received with equal exuberance. How I miss you love, the terror and fear we would inflict together.

As I sit here tonight I ponder my fate on this hollow ship, cold and empty, as is, so is to be dead. I think I should kill them all before they wake, move slowly through each level utilizing the height of the ship for my own good. I can throw each one off the edge of the rails, off into certain memory.

As I laugh I feel a peculiar, yet memorable, feeling something akin to recognition and familiarity. This feeling is so foreign that I almost assume that it is false, just a memory of the past. But those footsteps on the roof seem to be real.

I turned, and slowly took in the full beauty of the great God who strode slowly toward me. His feet padded half silently across the steel roof, somewhat drowned out by the cool wind. His tail swished slightly back and forth in the wane of the gusts and settled on his perfectly curved and carved body. Every curve of his muscles and movements were clearly visible through his thin kamono.

This couldn't be real I thought as I turned, doubt of his return strong. The very thought of this figure standing in front of me was enough to make my head spin. My heart was beating rapidly non-the less, and dared to betray my feelings.

"Are, are you really here?"

My voice sounded so timid I was surprised, and stood suddenly with grace to face this allusion. His features were so real it was painful.

"I am real Shiva, I am here to calm your worries, to dry those tears you silently cry during the night. From now on, no more tears need be shed, as I am here to help you stand tall. I have returned and found you my love. Together we shall begin the next rights."

His words, they were his, struck me heavily. Each word was like someone hitting me with ten thousand pounds of metal at once. Even the soft loving words hit me hard, my mind still not registering him as being real.

"Let me show you how real I am."

As it was I was already off balance, tired and weak from my despair. He lunged on to me, pinning me down between the cool steal of the roof and him. His body was so warm, so real, so firm. Everything I was thinking before then was now a memory, a shadow.

As his hands settled beside my head he lowered his body slowly on top of mine, pressing the warmth closer, driving the madness inside me out. His tongue was already all over my neck, licking swiftly at the exposed skin, softening it up for the next endeavor. I felt his teeth before the moan had escaped my lips. He slowly worked his way down my neck to my cloak. Aggressively he tore at the cloak, savagely wanting a way in.

"Wait, we should, move to my dorm, or somewhere, else."

My words barely coming out as he growled but instinctively swept us off to what I could only assume as his room. The bed was soft and luxurious, silk sheets covered the bed and duvets lay on top. The pleasure of lying in a comfortable bed with my love once more was over whelming.

"Take this off, now."

Once more he growled in my ear and I obeyed instantly the cloak and armor strewn across the floor.

Soon his hands were running all over my body and into my curves and bends. His hands stopped over my stomach, stroking back and forth the end of his fingers softly along the sensitive tissue. I couldn't wait anymore, as I lunged forward toward those luscious treasures, he came down hard on to my lips.

His lips full of heat and passion drove me to the brink of climactic pleasure. The night was not over yet, and we still had a way to go, so the kiss was only a reminder of what was.

We embraced each other holding on as if the other would disappear any time. My thoughts were only on him, the very essence of my happiness.

"I can't believe you came back for me. You came all the way here, just to find me. You have no idea how much I have missed you."

Tears threatened to betray my strength. He looked at me and sighed,

"I have been here for longer than you think."

He paused and continued.

"I have been waiting for the opportune time to present my self. Sooner or later I knew I wouldn't be able to hold back any more. Sooner came first."

His eyes looked lost, as if in turmoil. Nothing I could say would change the situation, so I simply said what I wanted.

"I want you Sesshy, you know I do, and you know it's been so long. Take me again as yours"

A sort of possessive growl emanated from his chest, his arms tightened their grip on my sides and he held me tight under him.

"Tonight, I shall make you feel like you did when I first claimed you as my own. You will never cry again alone, or ever. I will always love you my passion, and I will always crave your touch. The feel of your heat on my flesh is, irresistible."

Shaking with forced restraint, Sesshoumaru lost his control and consumed me in his own form, melting together as one again, into a heat long forgotten.
